Original doll: |
|
1962-1966 Ideal Posn' Tammy - 12" Tall |
|
Rescue: (yes or no) If YES - Provide some details |
YES. This doll was a serious
rescue - and the "before" picture shown below is the actual doll entered
in this contest. Posn' Tammy's body came with a badly
scarred Mary Make up head. The spooky-looking Tammy head had been
hidden in a box for the past five years. No eyes, chipped lip
paint, bad hair cut. Finally got the nerve to do something about
it, and did my best to make this doll special.
This Tammy is the first in a series of three rescue
dolls that were inspired by Women In Suits everywhere whose work
day begins well before arriving at the office.

Reroot: (yes or no) |
|
NO Reroot -- Hair
coiffed and styled to suit the look. |

Pattern information: Adaptation, Pattern, Sloper,
No Pattern |
Tammy's suit is an adaptation and combination of two
vintage patterns. A professional suit was sewn for my 12" tall Posn'
Tammy based on the fabrics and specs I provided. The materials used to
make this outfit have been with me for more than 35 years. White linen
suit and licorice colored satin blouse are completely lined in white. Tammy's dog was made without a pattern, and is truly
one of a kind.
